Word up

[justformemes]

Word Association is a common word game involving an exchange of words that are associated together. The game is based on the noun phrase word association, meaning "stimulation of an associative pattern by a word" or "the connection and production of other words in response to a given word, done spontaneously as a game, creative technique, or in a psychiatric evaluation." ~ our lord and saviour wikipedia GUIDELINES ① post with your character's name & series. ② include a word of your choice and optionally the definition in the body of your comment. -- visit the random word generator if you need help! ③ other characters will reply with the first word their character associates with the one you chose. ④ continue back and forth until one of you just has to know the story behind an answer.

[Poe had some really rough days lately but now that things had calmed down slightly, he can focus on making sure everyone involved in this isn't too overwhelmed.]

My pleasure. And we really do, even if you don't believe it. We wouldn't be alive if it weren't for you.

[lastofjedi]

[Many of them had experienced a rough few days, she wouldn't dare try to explain her own but in the end she was left feeling rather empty and still very much alone.

Master Skywalker was now gone, the incidents with Ben weighed heavily on her mind.]

I'm not going to take all the credit.

[aprettyflyboy]

[If she ever wants or need to talk, Poe will listen.]

Maybe not all but do not be too shy to admit your accomplishments. We need to celebrate the small victories too, they help us fight for the big battles.

[lastofjedi]

I don't think I've accomplished much of anything but thank you none the less. And small victories should be just as cherished as the bigger ones.

[Sure she had saved what was left of the Restinance but what about Ben? What about this war that was quickly brewing? She wasn't afraid to fight and she was very much willing but how would it all end? She hadn't even gotten to properly train with Master Skywalker and now he was gone too.]

[aprettyflyboy]

We are alive. We made it this far, it's good enough.

[Others aren't so lucky, he doesn't say. But most of his friends and team are dead and gone and he's trying to focus on the positive as to not go slightly crazy once adrenaline fades.]

[lastofjedi]

And we have hope and each other. I say we are still holding just as strong.

[Or so she could believe.]

[aprettyflyboy]

That's the spirit.

[Believing is half the battle. Poe lives his life focusing on the things that need to be done and fixed. Which reminds him...]

Have you eaten recently?

[lastofjedi]

[The Restinance had suffered great casualties, they had a lot of healing and recovering to do but Rey did not dare doubt they all wouldn't come out stronger from this.

They would.]

I have not, my mind hasn't really been focused on food. Have you?

[aprettyflyboy]

[They have no other option but to move forward.]

Me neither. I've been helping Chewie to try and get the Porgs out of the Falcon's engines. They're nesting everywhere.

But we are on a break now. I could bring you something to eat.

[lastofjedi]

[The porgs were starting to become more problematic than they were cute, if Han could see what these things were doing to his beloved ship he would be beyond furious. ]

I don't mind helping you two.

[After all she did kind of take the Falcon over, so its her own duty to keep it well kept, especially for Han, the man she missed dearly.]

I don't mind.

[aprettyflyboy]

[If Han could see the, he would throw them out of the airlock. Poe grew up in Yavin and critters being everywhere causing troubles was something he was used to.]

It's all right, we got it under control now. More or less. We only need to get them out of the ship on the next planet we land that's habitable and we will be rid of the little pests.

You need to get your strength back as well.

[lastofjedi]

[Han would have a fit! The little creatures hadn't meant to become so troublesome and Rey didn't have the heart just to toss the little beings out, Chewie seemed rather attached.]

Only if the planet is safe. [She didn't want the poor things being harmed or worse.]

As do you.

[aprettyflyboy]

[He so would, It would had been fun to witness. Poe missed the man too even fi he didn't get to see him all that often. He still needs to talk with Leia about how she is handling everything.]

Of course. [Which is why Poe said 'habitable planet'.]

Ey I had like, 40 minutes of sleep yesterday. Truly an accomplishment. I'll be fine.

[lastofjedi]

[Rey needed to speak with General Organa herself, she hadn't had much time to really speak with anyone after recent events but she was determined to make sure that their great General was alright, Leia had lost so much over the span of a few days. Her lover, her brother, dear friends that fought along her side in these battles.

Now all gone. Perished.]

Only forty minutes! [She scorns him]

You need rest!

[aprettyflyboy]

[All of them really need a group support and tons of hugs.]

I'm a pilot, I'm used to not sleeping much. And I can do micro-naps. BB8 makes sure to remind me when I should be taking better care of myself, don't worry.

[lastofjedi]

[And a nice group therapy. She's only going to roll her eyes slightly before crossing her arms, giving him a slight look.]

Seriously?

[aprettyflyboy]

[That too.]

Hmm hm. [Watch Poe try to look as innocent as possible, Rey. The bags under his eyes probably ruin the effect.] Let's make a deal then. We both go get something to eat and rest.

[lastofjedi]

[You can't fool her, Poe. The exhaustion haunting your eyes speak volumes.]

Deal!

[Although she highly doubted rest would come easy for her.]
